Road-blogging: Notebook, BlackBerry, Treo or ???

Saturday, June 17th, 2006

I recently read Paul Allen’s post about his challenges on being able to blog from the road, and his excitement about being able to blog from his BlackBerry thanks to WordPress v2.0.3.

Well, as fast as Paul Types on a BlackBerry (and apparently he’s really fast, like 50+ words per minute), I suspect he’s probably faster still on a regular keyboard.

If so, another alternative may be looking into Verizon’s Broadband Access, a service now offered locally through our client PC Laptops.

Essentially, the service requires a small wireless PC card that slides into one’s laptop and then (depending upon wher you are in the U.S.) you get access speeds of 400kbps to 700kbps and burstable access up to 2Mbps. Monthly cost? $59.99 on a two-year agreement.

Might be worth checking out for you road-bloggers.
